Geometry based Stochastic Channel Modeling using Ambit Processes
share
The simulation of vehicular wireless channels using geometry-based radio channel models is computationally intensive when the number of scatterers is significantly high. In this paper, we propose a new geometry-based stochastic channel model to simulate and analyze the aforementioned channels based on a framework developed from the theory of ambit processes. Under reasonable assumptions, the underlying mathematical structure of the proposed channel model enables the characterization of high mobility channels in terms of fading statistics, spatio-temporal channel correlation, and Doppler spectrum, besides ensuring tractable analysis. The developed algorithm facilitates fast simulation of high mobility channels and accounts for key features of vehicular channels including appearance and disappearance of multi-path components, spatial consistency, and captures the correlation between time-evolving delay and Doppler associated with multi-path components. Finally, we carry out simulations to obtain crucial insights about the characteristics of typical vehicle-to-infrastructure channels based on the proposed channel model.
